One of last year’s most buzzy events, Frieze Seoul is back for its second edition this month. A host of other art events, ranging from exhibition openings to art fair parties, is set to sweep the city. These are Tatler’s top picks.
THE EMBODIED SPIRIT
White Cube
Joining the legion of international galleries that opened spaces in Seoul last year, White Cube will inaugurate its newly opened Seoul gallery in the city’s Gangnam district this autumn with The Embodied Spirit, an exhibition featuring the works of seven female artists. The show includes White Cube stalwarts, including Indonesian artist Christine Ay Tjoe, known for her abstract sublime paintings; Marguerite Humeau, whose surreal minimal sculptures were seen at last year’s enice Biennale; and, of course, the most familiar name on the roster, Tracey Emin, who’s most recognised these days for her neon light phrases. The show will also include sculptures by Belgian artist Berlinde de Bruyckere and German artist Katharina Fritsch, paintings by Louise Giovanelli, who started working with the gallery last year, and works by Korean artist Jinju Lee, known for her paintings on fabric, the content of which is often inspired by the nature of memory and our subconscious.
